ST. WILLIAMS, ON – A year-and-a-half after launching as a contract brewing operation, Hometown Brew Co. has secured a location for a bricks-and-mortar facility in Norfolk County.
Hometown has announced a partnership with Long Point Eco-Adventures, a wildlife preserve and eco-tourist destination near the town of St. Williams on the shore of Lake Erie, and will be opening a brewery and taproom on the site in the spring of 2019.
Founded by Dusty Zamecnik, Tommy DeVos, and Matt DeVos, Hometown currently brews its beers – including Blue County Blueberry Saison, Southern Ale, and Southern Light – at Ramblin’ Road Brewery in nearby La Salette.

- Greg C. is drinking an O-Pee-Chee Lager (Ides of January 2019) by Henderson Brewing Co at King & DufferinSimple & balanced pale lager that served well to cut the heat of some spicy Chinese food. Sometimes that’s all you really need.
- Greg C. is drinking a Farmhouse Brett by The Six Brewing Co. at The Six Brewing Co.Nicely balanced between fruity & funky Brett characteristics. Melon, Mayer lemon, touch of bandaid. Fairly dry finish. Good stuff!
- Greg C. is drinking an I Swear Sugarpants, It Was Your Idea 2019 by Sawdust City Brewing Co. at King & DufferinNot sure why there are separate annual entries for this beer, but I’ll go with it. Has cocoa, cinnamon, vanilla & cream notes as promised.
- Greg C. is drinking a Low Voltage by Powerhouse Brewing Company at King & DufferinClean & simple golden ale. Needs a bit more body to be a true cream ale, IMO, but still a well-crafted thirst-quencher.
- Greg C. is drinking a Ryevalry Roggenbier by Mill Street Brewery at King & DufferinFruity esters and sweet malt dominate, with earthy/peppery rye providing a nice backnote. Hint of banana bread as well. Nicely done.
